MCP Hub connects Neovim chat plugins to MCP servers so you can browse, test, and use tools, resources, prompts, and templates from inside the editor. It supports local STDIO servers, remote HTTP and SSE servers, OAuth and header auth, and live updates when server lists change.
Builders who use Neovim chat plugins and want MCP servers available inside their editor.
You can work with MCP servers from Neovim instead of switching between your editor and separate server tools.
Works with Avante.nvim, CodeCompanion.nvim, and CopilotChat.nvim for tools, resources, prompts, templates, and function calling where supported.
Handles Streamable HTTP, SSE, and STDIO transports for remote and local servers.
Supports OAuth with PKCE and header-based auth for API keys and tokens.
Lets you browse verified MCP servers and install them manually or with AI help.
Detects project-local configs and merges them with global settings.
Watches config files, keeps multiple Neovim instances in sync, and supports hot reload in dev mode.
Lets you define MCP tools, resources, and prompts directly in Lua.
MCP Hub is a MCP client for neovim that seamlessly integrates MCP (Model Context Protocol) servers into your editing workflow. It provides an intuitive interface for managing, testing, and using MCP servers with your favorite chat plugins.

High-performance code intelligence MCP server. Indexes codebases into a persistent knowledge graph โ average repo in milliseconds. 158 languages, sub-ms queries, 99% fewer tokens. Single static binary, zero dependencies.
Universal provider proxy for OpenAI Codex & Claude Code โ use any LLM (Claude, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek, Ollamaโฆ) with Codex CLI, App, SDK, and Claude Code
Git-native persistent memory for AI coding agents. Implements Google OKF v0.2 with sub-300ยตs in-memory BM25 search, embedded MCP server, and progressive disclosure. Slashes token bloat by 80% with zero external databases or dependencies. Built in pure Go.
Local-first code intelligence graph for MCP and CLI. Builds a persistent map of your codebase so AI coding tools read only what matters, with benchmarked context reductions on reviews and large-repo workflows.
Stop your AI from making things up โ it proposes, deterministic tools decide, every claim checked against ground truth with evidence. Grounded facts and context survive resets. Reverse engineering is the proving ground. MCP server + CLI.
